Anyone ever try building a 375 2.5" NE on a SMLE? Been thinking about doing this for sometime, and would appreciate any first hand lessons learned from the conversion.

Have a look at the British Lee Speeds, I think some of them were made in the calibre.

I know the British made quite a few guns in that calibre, I just can't remember which one it was.

500N,

Thanks the BSA Lee Speed sporter is exactly what I have been contemplating building.

Well if you copy what they did, you won't have any problems.

I'd suggest having a look at one to see how they got it to feed so well.

Good luck.

500N,

That is one of the reasons for this thread. These rifles aren't exactly common place here in the good 'ol United States.
